— McKeown’s Price Guide, 1997–98, p. 408
{"overview":"The Zeiss Ikon Icarex 35 CS is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera produced by Zeiss Ikon in West Germany in the late 1960s. With only a small sample at saleroom level, how much an Icarex 35 CS sells for depends heavily on cosmetic condition, a functioning meter, and whether a lens is included.","buying_guide":"Common faults on the Icarex 35 CS include dead or drifting CdS meter cells, sluggish slow shutter speeds, and deteriorated light seals. Inspect the bayonet or screw-mount interface (the Icarex line was offered in both variants, so confirm which mount a given body carries before buying a lens for it) and check that the meter responds to changing light.
